HOUSTON — A woman is dead and two other people were injured after a shooting near Uptown, according to the Houston Police Department.
The incident happened just after 2:30 a.m. near the intersection of Richmond Avenue and Chimney Rock.
When police arrived at the scene they found a vehicle stopped in the road with two women inside who were both shot. One woman was pronounced dead at the scene and the other was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries, according to police.
A man was also hit by gunfire nearby and had to be taken to the hospital. His condition is unknown.
